I would think the unlimited PTO was a bigger slap in the face.

You’ve been a staff 2 for 2.5 years? If you don’t get promoted to senior by this year, you might as well go because it’s not looking good. I’ve seen someone stay a staff 2 for like 4 years because the firm didn’t want to promote them but also didn’t want to fire them.

Isn’t it etiquette to get someone flowers before f*cking them?

Maybe just as most people here seem to think they’d be better elsewhere, management has decided better staff are currently elsewhere and they’d like help recruiting them. It also looks like they’re willing to pay for more vetted staff, which could be another sign that recruiting is falling short.

like

It’s possible that recruitment has tightened some and made it necessary to add another layer of verification before hiring. Replacements costs are expensive, especially if a company continually cycles through people who can’t succeed in the positions.

At this point we need to do both because the firm is hemorrhaging people and burning them out quickly, especially at the senior manager level. I’ve never worked harder trying to keep the house from burning down then I have this busy season

I was told by management they see me in a more supervisory role at my first year review and during meetings. My second year review comes and there’s no talk about a promotion - instead it says “we can’t wait to see her excel“ and my raise and increase were the same as the prior year. I know I deserved more of an increase this year. I mentioned to my manager about the promotion and was told she will bring it up in a meeting. Three months later and I haven’t heard anything. Any advice?
